Developing a Customer-focused Sales Approach

Overview/Description
Many organizations base their sales approaches on their own products and services, the duration and scope of their sales cycle, and other internal considerations that do not effectively meet the needs of their customers. But wouldn't placing the customer at the center of the equation generate better results? The short answer is yes. A customer-focused sales approach is structured around the customer's decision-making process and unique needs. But how do you know what these really are? What keeps customers up at night and drives their key purchasing decisions? This course provides invaluable insight into how to better understand your customer's real needs and outlines the benefits and potential barriers to implementing customer-focused sales approaches. The course also examines the impact of technology and its role in supporting and enhancing customer-focused sales by helping to develop and sustain long-term, mutually beneficial customer relationships.
